asked happy kid michael pace task youngest
I was real happy with the way Michael set the pace (of the game). We've asked him to do that for us and he's been getting it done. That's a big task to ask when you're the youngest kid on the floor.
defensive lost mark rebound stop
We couldn't get a stop or a defensive rebound from about the three-and-a-half-to-four-minute mark down, and that's where we lost the game.
behind business care guys next opportunity regional regular
We really want to (put this behind us). We want to take care of business in our next two ballgames on our regular schedule. Then we have an opportunity with the regional here for our guys to play on their floor, and that's special.
best ourselves position respect
We have a lot of respect for them, and we know what they have accomplished this year, ... we're going to get at it and put ourselves in as best as a position as we can on (Friday).
charles dribble drive four game happy heads job last minutes north putting taking terrific
I wasn't happy with the last four minutes of the game (for us). Give St. Charles North credit. They did a terrific job of putting their heads down and getting to the basket. We need to do a better job of taking away dribble drive penetration.
against defense good last offensive played potent seven six tonight
We played as good a defense tonight as we have played in the last six or seven games, in my opinion, against a very potent offensive team.
conference decide definitely rest tone
We're colliding awfully early. I don't think it will decide the conference championship, but it will definitely set the tone the rest of the way.
both certainly challenges coming direction gave leadership met provide push relying seniors time trying
Coming into this season, I certainly thought that we were going to be relying on our seniors for both leadership and direction on and off the court. Every time I was trying to provide a push for them, they always responded and met the challenges we gave them.
liked problems second selection shot shots
I liked the way we got after it in the first half. (In the first quarter), we shot better. The same shots were there in the second half, but we just couldn't get them to go down for us. I didn't have any problems with our shot selection (in this game).
best boys effort energy pick time
The boys put so much time and energy and effort into that game. To have it not go your way, it does take some time to come back and try to pick up the pieces. We feel that we've done that to the best of our ability.
five guys playing running sharing
That's when we're at our best, when five guys are playing defense, five guys are running and we're sharing the ball.
achieve boys goals happy hard mark worked
It was one of our goals to get to the 20-win mark and I was really happy for the boys that they were able to get that done. They worked real hard to achieve that.
difference start
It makes a big difference when Shaun is active, everything we do I want to start with his hands.
character guys hard integrity losing picked program rather seniors shoulders
It's hard to say good-bye to seniors who have picked your program up and put it on their shoulders and do it with the integrity and character that they did. Losing is losing, but I'd much rather keep these guys around.
